Way to go being creative getting him in there and for keeping the others germ-free!katiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08543462221790091810noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8534994551990168596.post-6469018190030884062009-02-12T14:44:00.000-05:002009-02-12T14:44:00.000-05:00Well now you know how I feel as a mom when other p...Well now you know how I feel as a mom when other parents use school as their baby sitting service, instead of making proper arrangements to keep their sick child home! I've had all 4 of mine home at one time or another over the last 5 weeks and when I've gone into their classrooms to volunteer- all of their peers have the same horrendous cough! I've spent at least $500 in pediatric visits and medicine to get them well! I think any parent that knowingly sends a vomitting or feverish child to school should be reported to the Department of Childrens' Affairs! School is for education- not nursing or babysitting!<BR/> You are not a germ-a-phobe! You have a brain to protect yourself and others from illness. Too bad if anyone thinks that's phobic! If you don't have health insurance and you don't want to miss your job due to illness, it makes perfect sense!<BR/> Clara and Sophie both caught an awful stomach virus and I felt like my skin was going to crawl off of my body! I hit everything with bleach, water, and Lysol! Thank God, we managed to contain it to those two instead of having all 6 of us down with it!Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04427203019545970588noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8534994551990168596.post-74017362697696910902009-02-12T13:01:00.000-05:002009-02-12T13:01:00.000-05:00Oh that's awful!

I may have you beat as far as exposure to germs - I'm a dental hygienist, so I'm inside people's mouths all day - but then again, at least I get to wear gloves and goggles and a mask. They might look at you a little weird if you did that!Calliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10861361418450032311noreply@blogger.com
